Kansas town's employees lose health care coverage due to ObamaCare

President Obama's spokesman claims Obamacare only eliminates "substandard" health insurance plans, but the city workers in a small Kansas town likely disagree.

"I simply wanted you to know the pain this is causing me and my staff in losing the terrific health coverage we had through Blue Cross Blue Shield in exchange for worse coverage at a higher price," Bel Aire, Kan., City Manager Ty Lasher wrote in a letter to Rep. Mike Pompeo.

"As you know, it is difficult to present dedicated employees with declining health coverage with a higher premium," Lasher said in his letter to the Kansas Republican.

Lasher said full-time and part-time employees have lost their coverage.
